Drum programming is a crucial part of music production, but it's not always the most straightforward and can vary from software to software.
In Studio One, for example, we have Sample One XT and Impact XT, two powerful virtual instruments designed for programming MIDI, but which is the...
If you're a fan of Studio One, you're probably familiar with its robust macro ecosystem. But for those who may not know, macros are essentially a way to automate specific tasks or processes within Studio One by allowing you to record a series of actions and then play them back with a single...
Komplete 14 is arguably one of the most popular music production bundles out today. The suite comes packed with many virtual instruments, mixing plugins, and everything else you might need to kickstart or elevate your music production journey.

Sampling is one of the most well-known art forms in music creation and a fundamental part of the hip-hop that we all know today.
It has changed a lot over the years, especially in the digital era, but its essence remains the same; taking something that already exists and adding your own spin to...
I don't know how long you've been a Studio One user, but I've been around since 2012 when it was still in version 2.

Pop chord progressions and melodies over hip hop drums have to be hands down my favorite subgenre to create. On the one hand, you have a catchy melody that grabs your attention, and on the other, you have super bouncy drums to keep you moving; it's the best of both worlds!
This week I decided to...
The Play Series by Native Instruments is a relatively new type of Kontakt library collection that provides an easy way to create. Nonetheless, I have always been very reluctant to buy any of them because of how restrictive they seemed when it came to manipulating those drum samples and adding...
As home studio owners, we come across various obstacles, and one of the biggest ones is getting your mixes to translate from your studio to the outside world.
Nothing is more frustrating than working on a mix for hours only to take it out to the car and realize that the bass is too heavy or that...
If you make Hip Hop beats, you understand that getting your kicks and 808s to blend well and sit right in the mix is essential.
Nonetheless, this can still be frustrating if you don't know what to look for or how best to approach these two sounds.
Not to worry, though, because the solution...
I think it's safe to say that Studio One is still one of the newest kids on the block when it comes to D.A.W.s, but I also think it's super underrated because of the insane amount of functionality you get for making music.
